I contest your apparent assertion that the newsmedia as a whole are interested in representing nuclear power as a positive force. Fears of a nuclear disaster, substantiated or not, and misrepresentations of what situations like a meltdown actually are, draw in viewers, readers, and listeners, who will be served with the advertisements that pay for their existence.
Never forget that TV programming exists solely so that you can be shown advertising. Barring any overwhelmingly wealthy backers who see their political agendas as worth promoting, news is entertainment.
